Apocalypse Hoboken were a punk rock band from Chicago. The band had been together, in various incarnations, since their final year of high school (1987), and despite extensive touring and many releases, failed to achieve much recognition. In 2001 the band split up for good, with some members going on to lead normal lives and others pursuing alternative musical pursuits.
